Hi David,

We are currently working on the 7.0 version. As this is a major release, there are quite many changes going on on the background that require out attention still. We estimate that the new version should be out in 6-10 weeks.

Cheers,
Zentyal Server Lead Developer

Hello Blorente,

Looking into deploying the new version. May I get an updated ETA regarding the release schedule?

Thanks!

This week would definitely be on the short end of their estimate; I'm not expecting anything sooner than mid-January.

Hi all,

The Zentyal Server 7.0 Beta version is now ready for testing. You can download it here:

http://download.zentyal.com/.beta/zentyal-7.0-development-amd64.iso

We are still polishing the Proxy and CA modules (we are aware that there are some minor issues). We are specially interested on receiving your feedback on the Samba module.

You can report any issues & bugs in this thread. All the feedback is much appreciated.

Woot!

Is there a change list? Any new features? Is there an issue tracker?

Someone want to clue me in on exactly what Zentyal-UCP is?  I've been through the sourcecode and looked at the installed components and still can't identify its purpose.

Nevermind,  I missed line 19 of https://github.com/zentyal/zentyal/blob/feature/ubuntu20/main/ucp/debian/control  Which states:

 This modules adds a transparent monitoring system for commercial editions

Will it be possible to keep using beta installation after full release (updating to the official release) or will I have to do fresh installation?

Hi! Beta version is experimental and might still go through some important changes so it would definitively be recommended to make a fresh install with the final version of 7.0. Cheers.

I have issues with DNS when I install AD. Before the initial Zentyal setup, "ping google.com" works (systemd-resolved takes care of the resolution). After installing the DNS in webadmin, same command won't work - "Temporary failure in name resolution".

Resolution of local names (in zentyal domain) seems to work ok.

Code: [Select]
$ dig google.com

Interface is configured with DHCP, which has 192.168.1.1 set as both DNS and gateway. Connection to DNS on that host works:
Code: [Select]
nmap -p 53 192.168.1.1
Starting Nmap 7.80 ( https://nmap.org ) at 2021-01-14 13:24 CET

Host is up (0.0011s latency).

PORT   STATE SERVICE
53/tcp open  domain

Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 0.06 seconds

Directing dig @192.168.1.1 works as well.

Adding 192.168.1.1 to Forwarders has no effect.
